Using phone cables or connections may damage your sensors because phone cables and connections have more resistance than the La Crosse Technology extension cable. Phone cables or connections are not recommended for use.

NOTE: Using extension cables will shorten battery life.

Warning: Never cut, splice, shorten or modify your sensor cables or extension cables. Doing so may damage your sensors and will void your warranty.

The Weather Station

The Weather Station is designed to be free standing only.

The Thermo-hygro Sensor

Rain Cover

Main Unit

Wall Bracket

An ideal mounting place for the thermo-hygro sensor would be the outer wall beneath the extension of a roof, as this will protect the sensor from direct sunlight and other extreme weather conditions. Be sure to mount vertically.

To wall mount, use the 2 screws to affix the wall bracket to the desired wall, plug in the thermo-hygro sensor to the bracket and secure both parts by the use of the supplied screw and ensure that the cable from the wind sensor is correctly plugged in otherwise data transmission errors could occur.

The Wind Sensor

Vertical mast

Wind -cups

Horizontal panel

Check that the wind-cups can rotate freely before fixing the unit. For correct and accurate readings, it is important to mount the sensor with the cups on the bottom. The wind sensor should now be mounted using the screw or cable tie provided onto a solid wall/ panel mast or mast to allows the wind to travel around the sensor unhindered from all directions (ideal mast size should be from diameter 0.62” to 1.29” (16mm to 33mm). Do not over tighten the mounting bracket
